Caroline Smailes and Rosalind Wyllie will lead a friendly discussion, showing how writers can use their own memories to produce plots and tales. After offering their top tips on self editing and on the mentoring relationship, Caroline and Rosalind will lead a writing workshop on how to use memory as a creative springboard, and how to make the most of what you have written.
